Property Profile | MAPLEWOOD PLACE

LOOKING FOR A FAMILY-FRIENDLY

neighbourhood where you’re just

minutes from a diverse array of urban

amenities, yet you’re surrounded by lush,

green forest? A community of elegant

townhomes with plenty of space for your

family, at a price you can afford?

Well say hello to Maplewood Place

in North Vancouver — a collection of

61 townhomes that’s amazing savvy

homebuyers with its North Shore style,

versatile floorplans, and one-of-a-

kind location adjacent to the famous

Maplewood Farm.

Love the Location

“This is such a cool part of North

Vancouver — a true hidden gem that

once you discover, you want to hang onto,” says

Peter Edmonds, director of marketing with Anthem

Properties, adding that new townhomes are virtually

impossible to find here.

Best of all, it’s a neighbourhood that’s connected

to — well, everything. “Families love how close

Maplewood Place is to everything — great schools,

rec centres, restaurants.” He points to the west.

“About a three-minute walk over there is a wonderful

neighbourhood shopping centre with coffee shops, a

liquor store, restaurants, and soon Metro Vancouver’s

second Stong’s Market — anyone who’s been to their

Westside Vancouver store knows what an amazing

grocery Stong’s is. You’re half a block to a park

along the Seymour River, you can be on the Second

Narrows Bridge in about five minutes, and if you’re

craving one of the best avocado on toast sandwiches

going, just head over to Café Orso in Deep Cove.”

cover story

16 YPNEXTHOME.CA

Celebrate Your Good Taste

With five distinct floorplans available, Maplewood

Place really does have something for every lifestyle.

First there’s a single-level, two-bedroom with open

great rooms and two patios — one front, one back.

Or check out the traditional two-level, stacked plans

featuring two bedrooms upstairs and comfortable

main-floor living below. Maplewood Place even

offers one bedroom homes — particularly appealing

to first time buyers and young singles.

Then there’s the E Plan, a design Peter says is

one of Maplewood Place’s most unique. At a single

glance it’s easy to understand why. This three-

level beauty redefines the kitchen as “heart of the

home” — a centrally located culinary hub featuring

composite quartz counters, stainless steel appliances,

and enough storage to satisfy even the most

demanding chef. The display home also showcases

white Shaker cabinetry with black matte pulls, one

of the two colour schemes available and an eye-

catching detail unlike anything I’ve seen before.

The second floor is where you’ll find two

generously sized bedrooms for the kids, the main

bathroom, genuine laundry room with side-by-

side washer/dryer, and… a door at the bottom of a

second fight of stairs. “We really did save the best

for last,” Peter says with enthusiasm.

Arriving on the top floor is definitely one of those

“aha” moments. More than a master suite, this room

spans the entire floor and is a true retreat designed

exclusively for mum and dad. Want a few hints?

Okay, try these: massive walk-in closet, ensuite

with spacious shower and double vanity, room for

a king-sized bed as well as extra large night tables,

and my favourite, a flex-space with door. Sure that

extra room would be great for a home office as it’s

shown, but my mind’s already wandering in different

directions — library, a place to put the stationary

bike or treadmill, even a hobby room for those with

more crafting skills than I possess. After all, choice is

always good.

Value You Can Count On

“Maplewood Place offers terrific affordability and

long term investment potential,” Peter says. “It’s an

emerging neighbourhood, you’re buying new so

you have the peace of mind that comes from having

a new home warrantee, and you’re getting all the

design and style you’d expect from a single-family

home.” Sounds like win-win all around.

The Maplewood Place Presentation Centre and

display homes Public Grand Opening is on October

17, but why wait? Get in ahead of the public

opening by registering at maplewoodnorthvan.com

or call 604.971.5030.

This is such a cool part of North Vancouver — a true hidden gem that once you discover, you want to hang onto. —Peter Edmonds

PICTURE THIS. A spacious townhome facing onto

protected greenbelt and located only minutes

from the ever-expanding amenities of Surrey’s

new downtown. Now say hello to Aria, a boutique

collection of just 50 homes that’s well under

construction on 64th Avenue at 143rd Street in

Surrey.

According to sales manager Sheela Patel,

response has been resoundingly successful. “We

were over 50 per cent sold within five weeks of

opening. And since many of these homes will be

ready for occupancy in the next three months, you

can be moved in and settled in time for the holiday

season.”

What Families Want

“One of the first things people fall in love

with is the kitchen,” Sheela says as we step

into the first display home. Her gesture

takes in the curved-glass hood fan, wine

fridge and microwave built into the centre

island, and my favourite, a large window

above the sink — definitely this is a space

designed for family living.

In the adjoining living room, I discover a

lineal fireplace that I’m guessing must be

more than four feet wide and framed with

an elegant, textured surround. Above, a

recessed TV niche could also be a gallery-

style showcase for a treasured painting or

sculpture.

Laundry is intelligently located on the

third level by the bedrooms — no running

up and down stairs every time you need to

switch clothes from washer to dryer.

Stepping into the master suite reveals

yet another smart design feature — a

walk-through closet with mirrored doors,

meaning you’ve always got one last chance

to check your ‘look’ is perfect. As I venture

further, I find a spacious room with vaulted

ceiling and one of my favourite features

— a window-box seat. There’s even the

convenience of double sinks in the ensuite

— meaning plenty of room for both of you.

The Aria presentation centre and display

homes are open noon to 5 p.m. daily

except Fridays at 14285 – 64th Avenue

in Surrey. Three- and four-bedroom

homes priced from $358,800. For more

information, visit arialiving.ca or call

778.885.6700.

Many of these homes will be ready for occupancy in the next three months.— Sheela Patel

Tell your friends. it’s that good.

ONE THING TO KNOW about Steve: when

he commits to a project, he’s meticulous

about research. So when Steve decided

to downsize from a large family house

on Langley acreage, he took his time

examining options — lots of time and

lots of options.

The original plan had been to

purchase a smaller acreage that would

still accommodate two custom homes

— one for himself and his two adult

sons, a second for his daughter, son-

in-law, and their two children. But as

he started considering the logistics,

the maintenance-free lifestyle of a

townhome began to make sense.

“I spent months scouring every new

development from White Rock to Maple

Ridge and as far as Mission –but nothing

worked,” he says with a good-natured

shrug. Then one day, a friend mentioned

Heritage by Infinity Properties. Steve

checked the developer’s website and his

search suddenly took a different direction.

“I liked the Arts and Craft architecture,

and having three bedrooms with a

master on the main was perfect for our

family structure.” He smiles. “Let’s face

it, guys like their own space. Here, one

son will be able to have his man cave on

the lower level, the other can be upstairs,

and I’ll still have the whole main level.”

The open, contemporary floorplans

were winners too. “I’ve never liked

townhouses where you walk in, go up a

long set of stairs, and arrive on an upper

floor that looks like a bowling alley —

which is what my daughter and son-in-

law are living in right now. Heritage is

completely different — open and feels

more like the house we’re used to. This

will be a good transition for us. And at

the price point, it’s the best deal I found

anywhere. You could say all roads just

kept leading me back to Heritage.”

Cinching the deal was Heritage’s

location in the historic Murrayville

neighbourhood. “This is quieter and

more family-oriented community than

Yorkson, where I’d also looked, so it’s

really like having the best of all worlds.”

And there’s a unique, very cool

epilogue to his story. When Steve

brought his daughter and her husband

to see the presentation centre, they

were so delighted they decided to

purchase a new home there as well.

“So we’re going to see our family vision

come together in the end,” he says.

“Just in a slightly different format than

we originally thought.”

Heritage is located at 22084

Fraser Highway in Langley. Visit

DESPITE WHAT YOU often hear, buying

a home isn’t only about location,

location, location. True, this is the

time-tested fi rst rule of real estate,

but there are other determining factors

you must consider as part of your

selection process.

Indeed, it’s 2015 and there’s a new

rule of thumb for buying real estate.

Location First, what does that old

adage really mean? Of course, we’d

all love a high-end home in the best

neighbourhood. But that’s not possible.

What to do, then?

For your own enjoyment while you live

in your home as well as for future resale

potential, proximity to transportation,

shopping, schools and other amenities is

among the key determinants that a� ect

your property’s appeal and ultimately its

value. After all, those are the qualities

potential buyers look for when searching

for a home; the more of them your

home has when you go to sell, the more

Advice | FUNDAMENTALLY SPEAKING

By Wayne Karl

Location, information and timingThe new adage for real estate in 2015

desirable it will be to a greater number

of people. This equates to demand –

multiple o� ers and a higher price.

Information Whether you’re a

fi rst-time homeowner, “buying up”

to accommodate a growing family

or “right-sizing” as an empty nester,

education is critical. And these days,

with digital media and mobile

technology, all the information you need

is at your fi ngertips. From the content

in this magazine or at ypnexthome.

ca, to the resources available to you at

Canada Mortgage and Housing Corp.

(CMHC), to the local market expertise of

your Realtor, the more knowledge you

have, the better equipped you are to

make informed decisions about buying,

maintaining or selling your home.

Timing Though your home is

your primary residence, it is also an

investment. Where you buy is usually

determined largely by where you want

to live, work and play. But when you buy

and when you sell, is also important. Like

any fi nancial instrument, real estate can

fl uctuate in value and your timing can

determine how good of an investment it

is. There’s no shortage of media reports

on the ups, downs, crashes and surges

of the housing market. But if you’ve done

your research, you won’t be spooked –

or excited – by big-picture reports on

short-term market performance. You

know that real estate is not national or

even regional – it’s immensely specifi c.

You don’t buy the Canadian market

and you don’t buy a provincial or even

regional market. You buy a specifi c

home, on a specifi c street in a specifi c

neighbourhood.

So, it’s not just about “location,

location, location.” The new adage

is “location, information and timing.”

Do well with all three, and over the long

haul your home is going to be one of the

best lifestyle and investment decisions

you ever made.

THOUGH ONTARIO passed this legislation

over 10 years ago, the deadline for

Depreciation Report compliance for

B.C. was December 13th, 2013. These

reports determine if reserve funds are

established and allocated properly,

reducing the risk to lenders by making

strata homeowners less likely to face

large special assessments. Depreciation

Reports are not meant to force people

to pay higher strata fees, although

they can illuminate the need for higher

contingency funds.

After initial preparation, the reports must

be reviewed every three years. The cost to

prepare the initial reports may be several

thousand dollars, but follow-up reports

may cost less, as much of the input may

just be revisions of existing data.

Now the part that everyone seems

to be going crazy about – increasing

condo fees! Legislation does not

force strata corporations to increase

condo fees or even follow the fi nancial

recommendations. For far too long

though, these fees have started artifi cially

low to get folks in the door and to keep

current owners complacent, only to have

many cry foul when they have to pay

cooperatively towards an “unexpected”

roofi ng project on a 35-year-old

property. Inevitably, some condo fees

should go up after a report is completed.

Do your due diligence; the banks will!

The ongoing proof of a property’s

current state of repair will place

proactive strata corporations who

raise funds appropriately and focus on

maintenance in a favourable light versus

those who focus on a more costly

repair-and-replace approach.

As a current condo or townhome

owner, a Depreciation Report gives you

valuable insight into the fi nancial health

of your strata, as well as the scope

and cost of future repairs. Conversely,

Depreciation Reports grant the home

purchaser more transparency and

help anticipate the costs of upcoming

maintenance.

Depreciation Reports also protect

lenders. As more and more properties

use them, lenders will also rely on them

Depreciation ReportsImportant ways they may a� ect your property value or mortgage approval

Basic functions of a properly prepared Depreciation Report

1. Document an inventory of the common property, and common assets, as well as other strata property to be maintained.

2. Provide for an on-site inspection of the properties and assets to determine the overall condition or current state of repair.

3. Establish the remaining useful life of the inventoried properties and assets.

4. Estimate a projected maintenance, repair and replacement cost over a 30-year period.

5. Prepare a forecast for how the strata corporation plans to raise the capital to fund the outlined anticipated cost of repairs and maintenance.

to determine their risk of lending on a

mismanaged property. Lending rules

for qualifying for a mortgage have

changed over the last few years: now,

lenders may either refuse to lend on a

property if there is no report provided

or if recommendations have not been

implemented; or they may lend less

money, contingent on a potential

future levy or assessment.

Finally, although Depreciation

Reports may add a little cost and e� ort

up front, they protect investors from

future contingency shortfalls and so

protect the value of their investment

for the long term.

BURNABY/NEW WESTMINSTER

BOUTIQUE AND BEAUTIFUL, excavation is

now underway at Ivory Mews. Brought to you

by Otivo Development Group, this intimate

collection of just 27 townhomes offers the

charm of heritage architectural design and the

urban savvy of contemporary interiors. In short,

it’s like having the best of all worlds, and is an

exciting addition to the Edmonds area.

Location, Location, Location

It’s an old adage, but it’s true. When it comes to

real estate, location is king — and Ivory Mews

has what it takes to wow. “This is such an up and

coming neighbourhood,” says Donato DeCotiis,

president. “It’s a very quiet, residential street but

it’s so close to shopping, schools, parks and

transit — great for families in other words.”

He’s not exaggerating either. The shops

of Highgate Village are barely a couple of

blocks, the SkyTrain station is an easy stroll,

plus there are parks, schools, a library and the

popular Edmonds Community Centre awaiting

exploration just minutes away.

Westside Style

As a Burnaby resident for over 40 years,

Donato says he wanted to create homes

that stand out in the neighbourhood.

Clearly, he’s succeeded. “People

constantly tell us Ivory Mews has all the

charm and character they associate with

Westside Vancouver,” he notes.

Even better, because Ivory Mews is

located on a quiet, tree-lined street,

there’s a great sense of community —

people actually know their neighbours

and kids are often found playing games

one room (check out the CB2 photo on

this page for inspiration). Alternately, you

can use carpet tiles to fake a large rug

under your existing one, and fi ll in the

edges of a room.

2. Copper, gold and brass bring a classic

yet trendy style and warm undertones

without feeling like an overly strong

colour. If you’re timid (or already

invested in silver), start small by layering

these metals in with accents such as

frames, tableware and lamps. The mix of

silver and gold hues creates a subtle Art

Deco-inspired vibe, so there’s no reason

not to sprinkle one in, while letting the

other dominate.

TIP: Bronze tealight votives refl ect an

extra-warm glow. Line up three, fi ve or

seven (odd numbers work best) on a

silvery tray or cart for a contrast statement

and sparkling mood-lighting. Bronze Rose

1. Layering fabrics isn’t just for furniture.

Rugs can look amazing layered too.

I love adding a cowhide rug to tie

together unusual furniture arrangements

or punctuate the centre of a space. A

sheepskin-style rug also makes a stylish

accent to areas such as the edge of the

bed, under a footstool, or even draped

over a chair or bar stool for a softer seat.

TIP: Layer rugs like crazy to get a

patchwork quilt look that adds huge

drama – mix fi ve to seven smaller rugs in

3. Pillows are one of my favourite ways

to add style – they can move from

living room to bedroom and beyond,

and dress a room up, or down. Rather

than picking dramatic new colours, grab

some neutral but bold patterns that can

layer behind your existing favourites for

a more fi lled-in feel.

TIP: For my YSS collection, I wanted a

dash of liveable safari style, so I tamed

a tiger print pillow in a warm tan and

winter-white. An animal print like this

adds unexpected drama standing

alone on your dining chairs, or slinking

between the sofa cushions. Safari

Tiger Print Crewel Embroidered Square

Cushion. Visit YSSelected.com

4. Lush textures are great for adding

warmth to the eye and the hand. A

sumptuous blanket, folded neatly at the

end of a bed or tossed casually on a sofa,

adds some interchangeable luxury and

can move between rooms for new looks.

TIP: Spread a blanket across the

cushions of a sofa and tuck it in at the

edges, for a noncommittal contrast-

upholstery look. Pictured centre:

Chevron Jacquard Cotton Throw;

left: Aspen Deluxe Faux Fur Throw.

5. Don’t forget the vertical surfaces! An

extra layer of drapery helps avoid heat

loss through windows, so consider

mixing a sheer layer with a heavy

blackout-lined layer – you can keep your

existing curtains and add a double rod.

TIP: A lightly patterned inner sheer (try a

tone-on-tone white) under a solid heavy

drape, draws the eye’s attention to the

layered e� ect by adding drama to the

background instead of the foreground.

Trending

NDP leading in B.C., according to recent polls

It seems that the province may be

turning its back on Stephen Harper’s

federal Conservative party in favour of

Mulcair’s NDP.

A recent Insights West survey of over

800 British Columbians showed the

NDP was far ahead of the Conservatives

(an Angus Reid poll with about the same

number of respondents also showed the

NDP in the lead, though with a narrower

margin). Conventionally, the province

is divided between Conservatives and

New Democrats. It’s likely that Harper’s

Conservatives will be focusing some

energy on turning this around over the

next while in their campaign.

Conservatives promise home renovation tax credit

Prime Minister Stephen Harper

has promised to introduce a new,

permanent home renovation tax credit

if he’s re-elected this October. The

plan, which would cost the federal

government about $1.5 billion a year,

would likely be phased in over the

course of the 2016-17 fi scal year,

Hot o� the web Just a taste of what’s happening online at ypnexthome.ca

depending on economic conditions.

The Conservatives’ pledge to make the

home renovation tax credit a permanent

fi xture could either make the current

hot housing market all the hotter…or

have no impact whatsoever, according

to experts.

Many are critical of Harper’s

announcement because they believe

he is providing help to those who don’t

need it: people who already own their

own homes, rather than those who are

struggling to enter the housing market.

Vancouver, Surrey sourcing independent transit funding

With Metro Vancouver’s transit

plebiscite well behind us, Vancouver’s

mayors are still trying to decide who

will be responsible for funding the

$7.5-billion 10-year plan that they had

in mind for the future of the region’s

transportation. As it stands, there is

no alternative method to fund the

MORE STORIES ONLINE

ypnexthome.ca/news

proposed transit improvements, but

some of Metro’s mayors are considering

separate, independent transit funding

for their cities. Although the outcome of

the plebiscite dictates that the mayors

should not introduce other funding

sources prior to the next municipal

election in 2018, operating costs at

TransLink are on the rise. With labour

agreements due for renewal in 2016

and upgrades to the 30-year-old Expo

SkyTrain line and stations soon to be

necessary, this problem will only be

exacerbated.

Green Acres? Developers sell farm livin’

Community gardens have become

increasingly popular lately, and

developers are paying attention to the

trend. Developments such as Creekside

Mills at Cultus Lake in Chilliwack,

Southlands development in Delta and

High Point Estates in Langley are making

outdoor pursuits such as farming and

horseback riding more accessible to the

average homeowner. Likely, both Eddie

Albert and Eva Gabor of TV’s Green

Acres would be on board with this kind

of farm livin’.
